If you were Rob Gronkowski would you consider retiring?

[Big/Sky/Fly]

I don't think he's more at risk than an average player. That was actually the point of the post you quoted which was that this is for me a general argument and not specific to Gronkowski.

Lots of people who smoke don't get lung cancer. That doesn't mean the risk is worth taking.

Life is a risk...no matter how you roll.

What's the actual risk? Iow, what percentage of NFL players actually develop CTE and what are the mitigating factors that accelerate or decelerate the development of CTE? I haven't seen any studies that delineate these things other than a general statement that head trauma causes CTE. OK, but not everyone who has played in the NFL gets CTE. In fact, most don't get it at all. Better studies are needed.

I don't disagree with anything you said and especially agree more study is needed.

Are you willing to volunteer to be a lab rat? I'm personally not.

Oh, no thank you. There's way easier and less life threatening ways to get pot.
